Additional Information

From the Old West's chuck wagons and 1950s military bases' mobile canteens to more recent incarnations like taco carts and hotdog stands, food trucks are far from a new concept. However, in the last few years a revolution has taken place in the mobile food industry and what were once plain, old burgers, dogs and fries are now gourmet creations that could rival the fanciest joints in town. Experience Houston’s diversely delicious food truck scene all in one place at the 2nd Annual Haute Wheels Houston on May 12 and 13 with today’s deal of a VIP ticket, a $70 value, for just $35.

As Houston’s first food truck festival, Haute Wheels puts the spotlight on more than 30 of Houston’s most skilled mobile chefs who combine gourmet flavors and portable packaging. Participating trucks include Bernie’s Burger Bus, Coreanos, Eatsie Boys, Frosted Betty, Green Seed Vegan, H-Town StrEATs, Oh My Gogi!, Stick It, Zilla Street Eats and many more. Aside from the feast, the event will also feature the H-E-B Beer and Wine Garden with potables from Alexander Valley Vineyards, Tapena and Freixenet as well as live music on the Saint Arnold stage and a Vendor Village. VIP tickets include early entry to the festival, four vouchers for premium wine and craft beer selections with savory snack foods from H-E-B’s Café on the Run, a gift bag with H-E-B food samples, stylin’ Peroni Beer sunglasses, private seating in the VIP tent and access to private restrooms.

The trucks will roll on in to the Houston Community College Southwest Campus on May 12 and 13 from noon-5:00pm for this family-friendly event. Today’s deal can be used for the event day of your choice, but there are a limited number of VIP tickets available. Get trucking on your ticket purchase so the haute cuisine doesn’t roll on by with today’s Voice Daily Deal to the 2nd Annual Haute Wheels Houston.

All the trucks charge when you order. You can purchase a regular ticket to get in or you can get this VIP ticket and get early entry (starting at 11:30am) into the festival, (4) vouchers for premium wine and craft beer selections with savory snack foods from H-E-B's Cafe on the Run; a gift bag with H-E-B food samples, Peroni beer sunglasses and more.

So it's (4) vouchers for premium wine and craft beer (full pints or just 4 oz samples?), savory snack foods from HEB (that we have to pay more for or already included in the ticket purchase?) ect. Does this include the general admission's " drink card good for 5 samples or one glass of beer or wine"?
I'm hoping that these VIP tickets are worth it because I remember the beer festival fiasco, VIP did not feel like VIP, it was a total scam for $200. Plus these VIP tickets are significantly more than the general admission. I'd like to know that paying $35 (or $70 at full price) is worth it versus $16 for general admission.
